The higher heating value (HHV; gross energy, upper heating value, gross calorific value GCV, or higher calorific value; HCV) indicates the upper limit of the available thermal energy produced by a complete combustion of fuel. It is measured as a unit of energy per unit mass or volume of substance.
The rank of coal is correlated with its geologic history, as described in Hilt's law. In the ASTM system, any coal with more than 69% fixed carbon is classified by its content of carbon and volatiles. Coal with less than 69% fixed carbon is classified by its heating value. Volatiles and carbon are on a dry mineral free base; heating value is ...
Additionally, specific physical and mechanical properties of coal and particular carbonization properties The calorific value Q of coal [kJ/kg] is the heat liberated by its complete combustion with oxygen. Q is a complex function of the elemental composition of the coal [citation needed]. Q can be determined experimentally using calorimeters.
CBM – coal-bed methane; CCHT – core chart log; CCL – casing collar locator (in perforation or completion operations, the tool provides depths by correlation of the casing string's magnetic anomaly with known casing features) CCLBD – construction / commissioning logic block diagram; CCLP – casing collar locator perforation
THis forular to estimate the CV of coal is very useful, however we could do with some more information: - full reference for this Dulong chap - is the calorific value (Q) gross or net? - are the elemental contents (C, H, O and S) 'as received' or 'dry ash free' etc. There are several other correlations which could go in to this article as well.
Small coal at one time referred to charcoal, but this usage is obsolete. [31] Snap or bait. Snap, bait or piece is food taken to eat part way through the shift and often carried in a snap tin. [32] Sough. A sough is a drainage tunnel to take water from coal mines without the need to pump it to the surface. [1] An example is the Great Haigh ...
GCV may refer to: United States Navy good conduct variation; Grand Cross of Valour, an honour of Rhodesia; Gross calorific value; Ground Combat Vehicle, a cancelled ...
Coal gas is a flammable gaseous fuel made from coal and supplied to the user via a piped distribution system. It is produced when coal is heated strongly in the absence of air. Town gas is a more general term referring to manufactured gaseous fuels produced for sale to consumers and municipalities. [1]
